Here's our royal correspondent, Peter Hunt.

Wimbledon wind day, Walsall the next. -- one day. For a Duke and

Duchess, the pleasure of a Wimbledon final will be replaced by flying the

flag in Poland. It is a visit which has already attracted attention

here. This is a country which recently embraced the EU, welcoming

the royal representatives of one on the way out of a royal in the

tution. The monarchy will experience Poland's turbulent past, and a visit

to a museum representing an unsuccessful uprising. This visit to

Poland and then Germany will inevitably be seen in the context of

Brexit. It will not impact the negotiations, but the government

hopes their presence will show the strength of the ties once Britain

has left the EU. They brought that presence to France in March and

other cities in their roles as royal ambassadors for the UK. They are

coming en masse. Fort George and Charlotte, such trips are a novelty.

Sorry, I was not listening. I was listening to the creator of Doctor

Who, who said at a later stage, she should be metamorphosed into a

woman, and she said that in 1986. We will speak later on about Dr Who and

who Dr Who is. It is a lovely start to the day. It was a bit dark when

we got here. Yet. Glorious. I think it is going to stay like that. Is

it? Who knows? It was so dark when we got here, do you want to

reveal... Yeah, my dress is on back to front. I said that with ten

seconds to go. You could totally have gotten away with it. It gave me

a fright. I just hope I am wearing trousers. Everyone knows now. What

about Wimbledon? It is over. But what a fortnight! It is lovely to be

back. Who would have known we would be talking about that man? I

remember saying at the start look at how he is moving. It made the hairs

on the back of your head stand up. We have the theory of people playing

in the first round injured. Then people expecting Novak Djokovic,

Stan Wawrinka. And then with the finals with the ladies on Saturday

and then the men yesterday, it gave it a lift it needed. And Marin Cilic

yesterday, he was struggling with injury. Everyone had an injury.

Roger Federer had knee surgery and two months off. He got better,

certainly more fit. And look what happened. He made history. The most

Wimbledon fortnight, I will really miss it. I think you should come

next year. I would love to. We have a big mug. Are you allowed to

mention that? It is not one of us, it is an actual big mug for

Wimbledon. We should have left a camera running inside for the whole

fortnight to see where it has really been. If only it could talk.

Here's Matt with a look at this morning's weather,

You are there for a special reason? Hull for us today.

You are there for a special reason? Good morning. I certainly am, a

stunning morning here but what you can see is the Humber bridge. It

took 100 years of campaigning, but on this very day in 1981, the Queen

officially opened this stunning structure, 1410 metres long, the

world's longest suspension bridge at the time, still in the top ten to

this very day and more importantly today, as part of Hull's City of

Culture year it has received grade one listed status and that puts it

on par with the likes of Buckingham Palace and also the House of Commons

and even today it is an amazing feat of engineering. More on that through

the morning. A beautiful start as you can see on the banks of the

Humber but if we look at the forecast for today across the UK,

it's a day in which it's not just dry, sunny, but it's also very warm

as well. Pretty good start to the week for

many if you're heading out this morning but one word of caution, a

bit on the cool side if you're heading out in the short-term.

Temperatures have dropped markedly overnight from the humid day some

saw yesterday. A bit of patchy cloud in the English Channel and there's

some cloud in western Scotland and the north of Scotland producing some

showers and that will linger into parts Orkney and Shetland into the

afternoon but the afternoon in the south is a hazy and sunny affair,

strong sunshine overhead for many and temperatures will soar under a

gentle breeze for the majority. Temperatures in the south could hit

27 or 28. In the north we could hit 25 or 26. 25 possible to the east of

Northern Ireland and in eastern parts of Scotland, always cooler in

all Orkney and Shetland with more cloud and some rain and drizzle. The

cloud will come and go in north-eastern Scotland. More cloud

drifting to the south-west every now and again, including Wales, but for

most it's a clear night and after that one day temperatures will drop

a bit so another fresh Tartu tomorrow morning with patchy mist

and fog. For many, like today, Tuesday will be another stunning

David Ash fresh to. More cloud at times to the west of England and

across Wales -- fresh start. Eastern England will be dry, sunny and warm.

The same in Scotland and Northern Ireland and tomorrow it will be

warmer than today, temperatures could get to the high 20s in some

parts of southern England and to the bar north of Scotland we could get

to 26 or 27. The Moray Firth and the north-west Highlands in particular.

Like in the day big flashes of lightning in the south-west could

drift towards Wales, not a huge amount of rain to begin with but

into Wednesday more widespread storms into northern England and

Northern Ireland and Scotland -- late in the day. Torrential

downpours in places, the risk of minor flooding. England and Wales

will start with more sunshine around on a very humid start but that could

get together and we could see big storms developing. They will be hit

and miss, difficult to say where they will be at the moment, but we

could have torrential downpours as temperatures are peaking around the

mid twenties. Heat and humidity swept away into Thursday. Back to

fresher conditions. Still sunshine around in eastern parts but late in

the day we will see rain arriving in the west. That's the weather it's a

big Humber Bridge behind me. One of a number of historical buildings

that get listed status today in Hull. As well as the bridge we have

some really quirky Edwardian toilets in the city. Also the home of the

famous poet Philip Larkin, he is one of a number of famous people from

Hull who have had their homes listed, including a few architects

and a person who died in a serious rail crash back in the day, which

led to some increased safety features on the rails. Also the

tidal storm surge barriers in Hull, which keeps this low-lying city safe

from the ravages of the sea and the Humber. More on all of that through

the morning on a stunning start to the day. Back to you both in

Salford. Thanks very much, Matt, see you later. We will be there through

the morning. Let's have a look at the papers, we

tried to frighten the front pages earlier. -- to find. There she is,

about time, Lord. That's the headline. Always over 50s life

cover! Drops on my lap as well! This is the main story. Nurses and cops

overpaid while raking in ?10,000 a month renting property, as he lives

in luxury for free, about the Philip Hammond. The Doctor there with the

headline. Front page of the Times, Roger Federer makes so many of the

front and back pages. They are talking about fighter jets, so much

money being spent on F-35 stealth aircraft but they say they might not

be able to be used because things like software upgrades, spare parts

and cost reduction images use have been buried in US defence contracts

and they are not included in the published figures according to

investigation by the Times. The Daily Mail. Doctor Who changes sex,

while male TV heroes beings at? And Federer and Cilic on the front

cover, Cilic in tears and Federer crying -- being zapped. Completely

different on the front page of the Guardian, they are talking about

Brexit being a threat to safe and stable food supplies. An interesting

story about Grenfell saying stripping Grenfell style cladding

could put more blocks at risk. They have talked to experts and they say

the installation is more dangerous than the cladding that covers it.

What have we got? It isn't often that Winnie the Pooh gets on the

front of the Financial Times. I wonder if that has ever happened

before. I would say not but Beijing has blocked Winnie the Pooh images

China has taken them down from social media. No official reason has

been given. Not wearing any pants? That seems all right, but observers

have suggested it was related to previous comparisons of President

gee pin the portly teddy bear. There's images we can see of

President Xi Jingping with President Obama -- comparisons of President Xi

Jingping. It goes to show, we have talked before about Twitter and

Google trying to break China, that's why it's a bit harder because you

can't put anything you want up. What an interesting story! You surely

couldn't find anything wrong with Winnie the Pooh! There is a page six

article on it in the FT as well, so they have gone big on Winnie the

Pooh in the FT. I didn't know that Winnie the Pooh doesn't wear pants,

I've never noticed! You're really observant! I have never really

noticed! Shall we move on? The back page of the Times, this is Roger

Federer, you can't argue, this morning it's all about that man. To

put it into context, in his career there is a 4.5 year gap where he

didn't win a grand slam title at all. Backpages all saying the same

thing. Roger Federer with the trophy yesterday. Back page of the racing

Post, Roger Federer 11 to four favourite to make it nine next year.

I know we will talk about this later but a blister is what happens to

Marin Cilic, a very serious problem caused by something quite innocuous.

On the sole of his foot under his left foot. It had been drained quite

a few times. The day before they try to scrape it off. Did he wear the

wrong socks? Who knows! It's because he had a five set semi-final and he

was turning direction too much and you need to wear two pairs of socks

but it gives you extra rubbing. Amazing, cost him the final!

Probably not very nice images for breakfast, apologies. It sounds

weak, doesn't it, it can be like a cold! I'm not kidding, he had a

cold, Federer, for the two weeks. Are you one of those people were

Federer can do no wrong? I wasn't, but I have become one of those

people. It's more than 1,000 years

since the lynx became extinct in the UK but campaigners hope

a decision later today An application being considered

by Natural England could see them released into Kielder Forest

in Northumberland, but the return of a major predator

is worrying farmers. Breakfast's Graham

Satchell reports. The last lynx in Britain was killed

for its further 1500 years ago. The application going into Natural

England today would see them return. Between six and ten wild lynx

released into Kielder Forest in Northumberland. This is a huge

conservation milestone. This is the first licence ever submitted to

reintroduce lynx on a trial basis into the UK. This is a life-sized

cutout of a lynx, so that's how big a real lynx is, so they aren't that

big... Paul Donahue from the lynx trust has been doing a consultation,

talking, listening and explaining and the children at Kielder School

have big questions. Are lynx dangerous to people? Lynx live all

over the world and in human history a healthy wild lynx has never

attacked a human anywhere in the world. There's a genuine excitement

here and enthusiasm for the return of a wildcat. They do look really

nice and it's good that they don't hurt any people or anything. They

might not hurt people but lynx are expert hunters. Their main prey,

dear. Deer eat out the understory, they overgrazed and if you see now

there's very little under story around so there's not really many

places for small mammals and birds to nest and lynx are needed to

balance the ecosystem. Not according to sheep farmers, who said deer are

not a problem and lynx would be a threat. I think it's absolutely a

stupid idea for a predator that's not been in this country for 1000

years to be released where it's going to cause damage to viable

business. As far as I'm concerned, the links will go for the easy

target, which is going to be sheep and lamb -- lynx.

Farmers would be compensated for any livestock lost, but they are

strongly against the issuing of a licence. There's got to be a legal

case taken against them because to release a dangerous animal onto

private land, that can't possibly be right. Annual fight them? Yes,

definitely. -- and you'll. Opinion here is divided. In the local pub,

Mike Brown is thinking about his business. One estimate suggests the

lynx could bring around ?30 million a year in extra tourist revenue. We

need as many tourists as we can get, it's the most remote forest

immigrant, we rely on tourist trade, that's 99% of the trade we take --

in England. Will Kielder Forest become the land of the lynx? The

decision is now in the hands of Natural England but if they say yes,

experts predict there could eventually be as many as 400 lynx in

forests around the UK. Graham Satchell, BBC News, Kielder Forest.

Whatever you think, they are beautiful animals.

I get a shot of it? Will let ruin everything for everybody? It is so

obvious... There his. Look at the size of it! It is normal size, it is

just perspective. Everyone just had a heart attack. First we will speak

about Roger... Rogerina? I'm trying to think of the female version. Rog.

I know you were laughing about me thinking he can do no wrong.

Basically, he can't! He had a few setbacks. Yes. He did not even need

to break a sweat! Yes, Roger Federer is the Wimbledon

champion for a record eighth time and he did it without really needing

to break sweat against Maric Cilic. Federer won in straight sets

in just one hour 41 minutes The Swiss is the first man

since Bjorn Borg to win the title without dropping a set

throughout the tournament. I was not sure if I was ever going

to be here again in another finals after last year. I had some tough

ones, losing to Novak Djokovic in 2014 and 2015. But I always thought

I could maybe do it again. If you really believe you can go far enough

in your life, you can. I kept dreaming and believing, and here I

am. It is fantastic. It was emotional, wasn't it? Marin

Cilic was crying. He had a good reason. He had developed a blister

on the sole of his left foot which was so grim that they had spent

Friday, his team spent Friday, working on it. He had a doctor with

him for six hours. It sounded horrible. Draining it. Packing it.

Trying to work out whether any painkiller could help it. But if you

have something wrong with your foot, you go on a big walk and have a

blister, you cannot go on. He had tears and sadness and frustration.

To get to that point and sit there with everyone watching at that

moment in your career. You cannot play your best tennis. And blister

sounds weak and feeble. But if you speak to someone who has been

through it, they say once it gets deep... Stop! Yes, it is agony. You

have to feel for him. But, you know, he will be back. He got all the way

there. But that needs to steal. As you said, he was crying, Roger

Federer was crying for a different reason. His twins were misbehaving.

That was glorious. More on that later. And now for other news.

And the last day of Wimbledon wasn't without some British success.

Jamie Murray and former singles champion Martina Hingis beat

the defending champions, Britain's Heather Watson

and Finland's Henri Kontinen in straight sets.

Really happy that I contacted Jamie for playing together. Pretty much my

dream came true to give ourselves a good chance to win the title, and we

did the blue it was a great two weeks for us, we played great

tennis. Excited to win. It was a huge achievement for us.

And Jamie Murray wasn't the only British winner.

won their fourth successive women's wheelchairs doubles title.

It is great Jamie Murray and her were playing only at the start. See

Seriously. I am going to have to practise. Another go at that later.

Maybe we need a slightly bigger... Maybe a football or something. And

now we are at Humber Bridge, which has been given listed status. Where

are you? Good morning. I am on the banks at the moment. A stunning shot

of the Humber Bridge. The first plans for crossing it were back in

1870. They wanted a tunnel, but after 100 years of campaigning and

eight years of construction as well, the Humber Bridge now takes over 8

million journeys each year. And, of course, as you have mentioned, today

is a special day. It is not only the 36th anniversary of its opening, but

it has received listed status. Blue skies. Not just on the banks of the

Humber, but also for the UK. A sunny day in store. A warm one as well.

Especially after a cool start. Blue skies for many first thing this

morning. Patchy cloud in the English Channel, mainly to the south-west of

England. And also in the north and north-west of Scotland. The cloud in

the north-west may threaten show us this morning. Shetland, Orkney,

showers continuing. A dry day. Quickly warming up as well under

strong sunshine. Temperatures quite widely could be seen hitting the low

20s. More cloud towards the south-west of the country compared

to much of England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland to the temperatures

today will be likely in the east of England, 27 degrees is possible.

Including near Hull. And in eastern Ireland and Scotland, 35 degrees is

possible. Always more cool for the far north and west of Scotland.

Getting cloudy in Orkney and Shetland. Mid-afternoon, the showers

should clear. The cloud will be here in the finals of Scotland. Also,

some in the far south and west of the country. Clear skies. Patchy

mist and fog. Again, a clear and fresh night coming after a warm day.

Temperatures dropping after the sun sets. A fresh start tomorrow

morning. A warm day. Still some good sunny spells. Most of us will the

sunshine. A bit of a breeze to the south and east. That means some of

the warmest weather in the north and west tomorrow. South-east Wales,

south-east parts of the Midlands, temperatures getting to 29 degrees.

Even in the north and north-west of Scotland, we could get to 27

degrees. Storms pushing into the south-west by the end of the day.

Lightning storms initially into Wednesday that the torrential

downpours. Northern England and Ireland. Wales sees some sunshine.

Through the day, heat and humidity reaching 31 degrees across eastern

England, which could be enough to that of some localised severe

storms. A bit difficult to see where the weather will be. Kit tuned to

the forecast. All of it will be swept out on Thursday. A bright day

for many on Thursday by feeling more fresh before rain arrives in

Northern Ireland later. That is how the weather is looking. As you can

see, the Humber is looking stunning, along with the bridge. It is not

just the bridge, but eight other localities have listed status in the

city, including some pretty Edwardian toilets. And the storm

surge barrier as well in Hull which protects this low-lying area from

severe surges and the Humber and the North Sea as well. That is how it is

looking here on the banks of the Humber.

Good to see an Edwardian toddler awarded as well, about time!

People who enter competitions online could be putting themselves

You see lots of them, on the back of things in supermarkets or online or

on newspapers, some people make a living out of them if you're really

good but we aren't all that wise! The prizes offered by the some

online competitions can That's backed-up by a survey from

the Nationwide Building Society, which says that around two thirds

of people who enter them are putting That's because people are sending

off things like their name, address and date of birth

without checking first if the deal Let's talk to Emily Orton,

who's the director of cyber security The research says we are aware of

these risks but when it comes to these competitions we are giving

away our details, why are we more casual? We are used to giving out

personal data in this day and age, especially young people, so lots of

the time it is social media things like date of birth, where we live,

where we studied, so it's not a big leap to enter a competition where we

think the upside could be something like a holiday or vouchers. 18 to 24

-year-olds are more likely to dish out this information, is it because

there's rarely big consequences for giving out your details? I would say

that consumers or individuals are less of a target and a large

organisation, we've seen many big cyber attacks against large

organisations who have huge datasets and much more to lose in many ways.

I think the injury to all doesn't he'll the immediacy of that risk. --

cyber security a problem, but especially young people are taking

that decision to run the risk for the upside. When it comes to

checking, nationwide advises if it looks too good to be true then it

might be but it's a competition and the point is it's meant to be too

good to be true -- Nationwide. Is there anything you can do to be sure

that the company you're dealing with is verified? There are basics that

go a long way, the first thing is this a reputable organisation? Check

the website, is there a padlock, can you see... Just next to the website

in the browser? Yes, that will help because it says we have certified

the organisation is who they say they are. Things like questioning

whether they really need your date of birth, what was the purpose of

them collecting it. Sometimes there's an Asterix that you need the

info and sometimes you don't need to put it all in? That's right, often

you would expect that, there's a big drive to collect marketing data and

you don't need to put it in. If there's a website that requires you

to enter a lot of data, you need think twice. Emily, thanks very

much. There we go. A bit of advice to keep on top of this. If you want

to get into this, holidays of a lifetime, check the padlock at the

top and don't have to fill in all the boxes, that's about it!

a woman! Oh my god! It's a woman! The

Doctor... I might cry. It's a woman, I cannot believe it, they did it.

I'm shocked still! What a good choice. For me as a girl, this is

something I never thought possible ever. There are always doubts when

there's a new Doctor and if it's a brilliant actor, because it's a

brilliant part, if it's a brilliant actor and Jodie Whittaker is a

brilliant actor then it's all going to be fine but what's interesting is

it's going to be very different. Let's speak now to the actor

Lisa Bowerman, who plays Professor Bernice Summerfield

in the Doctor Who audio plays. Good morning, good morning! I'm

guessing your reaction by the smile on your face is your pretty happy

about this? It's an extremely good decision. It's been so fascinating

this morning, the papers are covered with it. I was in the car on the way

this morning and it was all over the radio, the reaction has been

extraordinary and it's an extremely good thing. The bottom line is, I

heard a bit in the clips you just played, it's a brilliant piece of

casting, Jodie Whittaker is a fantastic actress and I think that

can only bode well. On having a problem with my microphone, sorry, I

hope you can still hear me. It's my problem, not yours! She said

herself," I want to tell fans not to be scared by my agenda", but there's

been a big reaction to this, hasn't their? It's interesting, because of

all the roles that have been played by women recently, I saw Glenda

Jackson playing King Lear last year, Maxine Peak played Hamlet recently,

of all the parts the Doctor is one that can easily be played by a

woman. After all it is a fantasy show, an alien with two hearts who

floats around space in a 1960s telephone box. To actually think

that somebody... Actually, let's face it, the Doctor is an alien who

met or is every few years, there's no reason why the Doctor, which is a

generic title, let's be honest, it could be a woman or a man, couldn't

transport themselves, couldn't transpose themselves into a woman. I

think when it comes to Doctor Who, it's always reflected these are

guys, the age that it's been produced in and I think it was right

for this particular change -- Zeitgeist. I've been a fan for many

years and each of the actors who plays the Doctor, they make it their

own, which seems like such an extraordinarily brilliant thing to

do in some ways. I know. You talk about all the different

interpretations, we've had everything from old men, Jon Pertwee

with a bouffant hairstyle and a frilly shirt, they very much reflect

the age in which they were produced. Interestingly I think I've heard a

lot of responses from fans who are extremely worried, I'm never going

to watch it again, but we should trust the producer, Chris Jade

North, not to put Jodie Whittaker in a pair of stilettos running in a

field handing the sonic screwdriver to a companion and saying you deal

with it. I think the Doctor will always have that character. I think

the character of the Doctor won't disappear. The Doctor has always had

the moral high ground. I say he, the Doctor, is not an action hero. He

isn't someone who throws people around with the strength of his

muscles, it actually doesn't matter whether the Doctor is a man or a

woman because that essential goodness, that essential fighting

for the outsider I think we'll probably still be there. Let's leave

it with that thought, that essential goodness. Thanks for your time on

Breakfast this morning. Get in touch with us to let us know what you

think about the appointment of Jodie Whittaker as the next Doctor Who,

she coats over at Christmas. Now, though, it's back

to Louise and Dan. This is Breakfast, with Dan Walker

and Louise Minchin. Details of 16,000 jobs

are announced as the first major contracts to build the HS2

rail line are revealed. The high-speed line

between Birmingham and London The final routes for extensions

to Leeds and Manchester Good morning. We have just got the

names of the companies that will build this project. I will have more

on that shortly. In sport, the "King

of Centre Court" does it again. A record eighth Wimbledon

title for Roger Federer, as he beats Marin Cilic

in straight sets. The first man ever to achieve that.

And he is already favourite for next year.

1,000 years after the lynx became extinct in the UK,

the authorities consider a plan to reintroduce them in Northern

There's been plenty of reaction like that to the revelation that

Jodie Whittaker will take the title role in the next series of Doctor

We'll be hearing from fans and critics.

The Humber Bridge becomes a listed building.

The banks of the Humber. The weather. Thank you. Good morning. It

was 36 years ago today the bridge was officially opened. Today it

joins the likes of Buckingham Palace and the House of Commons in

receiving Grade One listed status. Plenty of sunshine in the weather.

Will it last? More on that in 15 minutes. Thank you.

Details of 16,000 jobs are being revealed this morning

as the first major contracts to build the HS2 rail

The high-speed line between Birmingham and London

Later this afternoon, the routes for extensions to Leeds

and Manchester will also be announced.

Our business correspondent, Joe Lynam, has more.

It's Britain's biggest investment ever in public transport.

HighSpeed2 is designed to cut journey times and increase

the number of passenger seats between London

It's been six years in the planning but now the first

construction contracts have been signed, and they're worth ?6.6

billion, which the government says will support 16,000 jobs

The first trains aren't expected to run, though,

until 2026, by which time they hope to carry 300,000 passengers per day.

?50 billion on a track of this nature...

The Stop HS2 Campaign in the Chiltern says it will only

benefit the richest in society and the corporations who build it.

And reports on the weekend said HS2 could end up as the most expensive

Even so, the muddy work of spades in the ground begins next year

for what the government calls "The backbone

Let's get more on this story with Sean.

Many of those 16,000 jobs will be working for a lot of British

companies, though some foreign ones. People don't know the breakdown of

how much muggy is going to how many areas just yet. Last week, this

business has had their shares fall by 16%. They have given money to

others to look after this project. This could be seen as a lifeline for

them. A contract they needed to win. There are many question marks after

last week. What is important is that it is under way, it seems. Some of

our preliminary work will begin next year. Many jobs. But those residents

will be wondering about those route changes. It could affect many people

in their homes. We will find out more about that this morning. Thank

you so much. We will talk to you more about that.

The case of a terminally ill man who wants to change the law

in England and Wales so a doctor is allowed to help him die returns

Noel Conway, who has motor neurone disease,

is beginning a legal challenge to the ban on assisted dying,

saying he wants the right to choose how he dies.

The government is looking to increase the punishment for acid

attacks. Amber Rudd said she wanted perpetrators to feel the full force

of the law. A memorial forest is being

dedicated to the victims of the Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17

today, near Amsterdam's Schipol 298 people died when the plane

was shot down over eastern Ukraine International prosecutors say

a Russian missile was fired from rebel held territory,

which Moscow disputes. We will talk to people about that

soon. George A Romero, the horror film

director known as the Zombie Master, Romero co-wrote

and directed Night of the Living Dead in 1968

which became a cult classic, spawned a successful

franchise and shaped horror According to his manager,

the director died in his sleep while listening to the soundtrack

to the film The Quiet Man after a brief battle

with lung cancer. The Brexit Secretary, David Davis,

has called for both sides to "get down to business" this morning,

as the next round of negotiating Mr Davis is meeting

the European Commission's chief Key issues will include the future

rights of EU citizens in the UK and British citizens living in other

member states along with the Irish border and a financial

settlement from the UK. Adam Fleming is outside the

commission. What will be on the agenda? Anything different? Last

time these two men met it was the talk about acting all things, like

the timetable of things going forward. This is their first chance

to talk about clarifying each side's position. Both sides have released a

flurry of papers. They will be asking questions about what they

actually mean to be the big issues on the table at the moment, David

Davis says his priority is the rights of citizens. What will happen

to EU citizens living in the UK after Brexit and what guarantees

will people living in the EU have after Brexit? Michel Barnier, from

the EU side, he is talking about the financial settlement, wanting be UK

to agree to the principle to pay money to the EU to leave. -- the.

That will not be due until the future. A thorny issue. Everyone

here is obsessed about what is happening back home. How long we'll

Theresa May remain Prime Minister? -- will. And are ministers

disagreeing about how long and whether there should be a transition

period? Thank you for that. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge

will travel to Poland later today. It's part of a trip

that the Foreign Office hopes will remind EU countries

about the strength of their ties William and Kate will take

their children Prince George and Princess Charlotte to Warsaw

before going on to Germany later Here's our royal

correspondent, Peter Hunt. For a Duke and Duchess,

the pleasure of a Wimbledon final will be replaced by flying

the flag in Poland. It's a visit that's already

attracted attention here. This is a country that relatively

recently embraced the EU, welcoming the royal representatives

of one on the way out of a royal The monarchy will experience

Poland's turbulent past, and a visit to a museum representing

an unsuccessful uprising This visit to Poland and then

Germany will inevitably be seen It won't obviously have any impact

on the negotiations, but the government hopes

their presence will show the strength of the ties once

Britain has left the EU. They brought that presence to France

in March and other cities in their roles as royal

ambassadors for the UK. As in Canada last year,

the Cambridges are coming en masse. For George and Charlotte,

such trips are a novelty. Eventually, they will

be a way of life. We are going back to a main story.

One of the most controversial debates about time.

Should we be able to choose when and where we die

if we are suffering from a terminal and debilitating illness?

Noel Conway has Motor Neurone Disease and wants to change the law

in England and Wales so anyone who helps him end his life

His case returns to court today and we will debate it in a moment.

First, here is Noel's story in his own words.

I do not want to die very slowly of suffocation and being semiconscious

until I am in a condition where I don't even know what is going on.

That is called... For some people, they say that is good palliative

care. But I am sorry, that is not an acceptable option for me. They

cannot tell me how long it will take. None of them can. It could be

days, it could be weeks, it could be even longer. I... I... I am going to

be left in a situation at some stage when I can face that amount of

suffering, actually being locked in my own body, or are facing a slow,

suffocating death, drifting off slowly into unconsciousness. Why

should I have to do that? I know I am going to die.

Tony Bonser volunteers at a hospice, is a former trustee

for the National Council for Palliative Care and opposes any

Mick Murray on the other hand is a campaigner

I am sure this is a conversation many people having listened to you

this morning will be having themselves. We will start with you.

Why are you opposed to changes in the law? First of all, I am

immensely moved by that story and that extract we have seen. It is not

the first such example. I don't know how people cope in that situation,

and I don't know how his wife, his partner, manages in that situation

either. I would, as you know, I work for a local hospice, I deal with a

lot of people near the end of their lives. I find that people tend to be

vulnerable, able to be persuade. When I was with the national council

for palliative care, we did research showing how people are concerned

about not being of use, a bother, being a burden to their families. I

am concerned at a time when they are vulnerable, although they have

mental capacity, they are able to be persuaded. I think the problem is

creating a law allowing people like Noel to have his wish, to end his

life with dignity, safeguarding the rights of people vulnerable. Let us

put that to you. You are on the other side of the fence. And that

point about vulnerable people being brought in difficult positions. What

is your response to that? The campaign is arguing that for a

number of checks and balances to be put in place to stop that happening,

primarily, two doctors should determine mental capacity, they

should also determine it is a terminal illness. And finally, a

High Court judge, a judge in a family court, they should determine

there is no pressure, it is a freely made decision. You have both got

personal experience again from different points of view. I have

been to Dignitas twice, a husband and his wife, within two years of

each other. She died of palsy, and there is no palliative care for

that. She could no longer use her tongue and could not speak. In the

end, she decided to end her life. She could not do it here. One year

and a half later, my best friend, Bob, who was a very active mountain

near, campaign, what have you, contracted asbestosis, ravaging him

to the point where he had 22 boxes of pills beside his bed. --

mountaineer. He was still like this, clutching his chest, rocking

backwards and forwards, saying I feel as though my chest is on fire.

So the argument is not that people should not have palliative care, of

course they should, but sometimes it does not work. Bob was especially

lucid, along with his wife before him. And you lost your son? Yes. He

died in 2009 after five years of having soft tissue sarcoma. He had a

different outlook on things. Although towards the end he was

increasingly disabled, found it difficult to walk found it difficult

to eat. And his pain levels grew increasingly high until he really

needed very high levels of morphine just to control the pain. But he

always wanted to live and get the full amount out of life. The morning

of the day he died, he said to me, dad, I am going to beat cancer. That

is what made it work. Some people say you should not fight it. That is

what kept him alive. Different people have different attitudes.

There is the key problem, that's why the law is very keen on this. It

comes down to individuals but you were talking about people who

perhaps need to be protected, do you see that point? As I said earlier, I

completely agree that there need to be checks and balances that at the

moment there is no legal control, lots of people are taking their own

lives in private, assisted by friends, which is potentially

illegal. The campaign I think is for... I admire Noel's being able to

campaign at a time when he is dying, which is remarkable. Is not just

campaigning for himself, he's campaigning for others so they can

have the freedom to die with dignity. That's a pretty basic human

rights. Tony, as we've been explaining through Nick, that right

to control how your life comes to an end? I totally understand that and I

have enormous admiration for Noel and his bike. I looked at the

proposed changes to the law and I accept all the checks and balances

but it doesn't stop people being influenced at a time when they are

very susceptible -- fight. That's my concern. Say I believe personal

experience isn't a good guide to good, sound law. We need to find a

form of law that meets all the requirements and it doesn't at the

moment. Thanks very much to you both. That goes to the High Court

today and Nole Conway is too ill to go to court but thank you very much

indeed -- Noel Conway. Thanks very much. I'm sure you will be involved

at home as well. Let us know what you think. We will try to read out

your comments later on. It's going to be lovely, it is

already if you are by the Humber Bridge, like Matt this morning. Good

morning again! Good morning and good morning to you. I am by the Humber

Bridge, it took 100 years of campaigning, eight years of

construction, tens of thousands of tons of steel and concrete and at

peak construction it was using 1000 members of staff. Today, exactly 36

years after it was officially opened by the Queen, it has received grade

one listed status putting it on a par with the likes of Buckingham

Palace and the houses of Commons. It's not the only place to receive

listed status today, eight other parts of Britain's England's I

should say have received listed status. It is linked to Hull's city

of culture status -- England's I should say have received listed

status. Out of them all it has to be said my favourite is the bridge

behind me. A beautiful sight. 8 million journeys are taken over that

bridge every year and traffic is building now.

Blue skies overhead at the moment. If we look at the forecast today,

not just blue skies here but blue skies for many, shaping up to be a

stunning summer's date for the vast majority. We've started on a fresh

note, a bit cooler for one or two, but warming up in the sunshine --

summer's day. Patchy cloud in the English Channel towards the

south-west and the west of Wales, high cloud elsewhere turning

sunshine hazy but for most blue skies overhead. North and west

Scotland more cloud with a few showers, mainly like. They will

continue to affect Orkney and Shetland into the afternoon but

elsewhere the cloud will break up and the sunshine will come through

-- mainly light. Temperature is widely into the 20s and very strong

sunshine overhead, even if it doesn't feel as hot and humid for

some in the south as yesterday but temperatures in the south-east could

peak at around 25 or 27. 25 or 26 in some parts of north-east England,

including here by the Humber in Hull, 25 not out the question in

eastern Northern Ireland and eastern Scotland but always cooler in Orkney

and Shetland where we continue with the cloud. Tonight the cloud will

come and go in Orkney and Shetland, more cloud to the west of England

and Wales but most will have clearer skies, light winds and patchy mist

and fog and fresh to start. Temperatures changing from day to

night to start the week. But tomorrow could be a hot day. A bit

more cloud in western England and Wales but still with good sunny

spells to be found. Temperatures will shoot up markedly but with more

of a breeze to the south and east of England, warmest weather will be

found in parts of the south-west Midlands and south east Wales, where

we could get 28 or 29 and to the north of Scotland, 27 or 28 around

the Moray Firth and north-west Highlands. Late on you will notice

those clusters of shower clouds pushing up from south-west England

to Wales, they could produce nasty thunderstorms. Initially they will

just be lightning but then in Northern Ireland and Scotland they

will turn into torrential rain storms that could produce minor

flooding and that will affect the far north-west on Wednesday. Hot and

humid on Wednesday, especially to eastern England, 30 or 31 possible

and we could see in temperatures thunderstorms brewing in England and

Wales for a time. We will keep you updated tomorrow. Those storms out

of the way by Thursday and it will feel fresher and it should be sunny

for most on Thursday but in parts of Northern Ireland and western

Scotland, more cloud and rain pushing in later. A cracking start

to the week, stormy midweek and fresher to end. That's your weather

in a nutshell. Back to you both. Thanks very much, see you in half an

hour. I have a fact about the Humber Bridge, it is so good I am going to

save it! It's more than 1,000 years

since the lynx became extinct in the UK but campaigners hope

a decision later today An application being considered

by Natural England could see them released into Kielder Forest

in Northumberland, but the return of a major predator

is worrying farmers. Breakfast's Graham Satchell has

got all the details. The last lynx in Britain was killed

for its fur 1,300 years ago. The application going

in to Natural England today Between six and ten wild lynx

released into Kielder Forest in This is a huge

conservation milestone. This is the first licence ever

submitted to reintroduce lynx This is a life-sized cutout

of a lynx, so that's actually how big a real lynx is,

so they aren't that big, Paul O'Donoghue from the Lynx Trust

has been doing a consultation, talking, listening and explaining

and the children at Kielder First Lynx live all over the world

and in human history a healthy wild lynx has never, ever,

ever attacked a human anywhere There's a genuine excitement

here and enthusiasm for the return They do look really nice and it's

good that they don't hurt any They might not hurt people

but lynx are expert hunters. Deer eat out the understory,

they overgrazed and if you see now there's very little under story

around so there's not really many places for small mammals and birds

to nest and lynx are needed to control that balance,

to balance the ecosystem. Not according to sheep farmers,

who say deer are not a problem I think it's absolutely a stupid

idea for a predator that's not been in this country for 1,000 years

to be released where it's going to cause damage

to viable business. As far as I'm concerned,

the lynx will go for the easy target, which is going

to be sheep and lamb. Farmers would be compensated

for any livestock lost, but they are strongly

against the issuing of a licence. There's got to be a legal case taken

against them because to release a dangerous animal onto private

land, that can't possibly be right. I can understand the

farmers being nervous... In the local pub, Mike Brown

is thinking about his business. One estimate suggests the lynx

could bring around ?30 million It is the most remote village

in England, so we need as many We rely on tourist trade,

that's 99% of the trade Will Kielder Forest become

the land of the lynx? The decision is now in the hands

of Natural England but if they say yes, experts predict

there could eventually be as many as 400 lynx in forests

around the UK. Graham Satchell, BBC

News, Kielder Forest. Very beautiful. Would you like me to

give you the fact about the Humber Bridge? I can't wait. This has been

sent in by Tim. And actual fact? I think it is right, both the towers

are vertical but they are not parallel. That is because of the

curvature of the Earth, they are so far apart, as you can see, there's a

few inches' difference between the top and the bottom because it is so

big. I'm not sure that's my favourite of your facts. OK, I have

stolen it from Tim Hill but thanks for those, keep sending them in.

That's the scene in Hull this Now, though, it's back

to Louise and Dan. This is Breakfast, with Dan Walker

and Louise Minchin. The final route for

the controversial HS2 rail line north of Birmingham

will be announced today There's also more detail on who has

been awarded contracts worth nearly seven billion pounds to work

on the first stretch of the line and information

on around 16,000 jobs. The scheme has drawn controversy

from campaigners who claim it will only benefit the richest in

society but the Transport Secretary said it would "drive economic

growth and productivity A terminally ill man will today

begin a legal challenge to overturn Noel Conway, who has

motor neurone disease, wants to change the law in England

and Wales so a doctor is allowed to help him die when his

health deteriorates. Under the current law,

any doctor who helped him would face Opponents say the change would put

vulnerable people at risk. We were talking to two guests about

that earlier. The Brexit Secretary, David Davis,

has called for both sides to "get down to business" this morning

as the next round of negotiating Mr Davis is meeting

the European Commission's chief Key issues will include the future

rights of EU citizens in the UK and British citizens living

in other member states. The rise in acid attacks will be

discussed in Parliament today. The latest official figures suggest

there were more than 400 assaults involving corrosive substances

in England and Wales in the six The debate comes as the government

begins a review into the issue which could see sentences

for the offence increased. Yesterday, the Home Secretary Amber

Rudd said she wanted perpetrators George A Romero, the horror

film director known as "The Zombie Master," has

died at the age of 77. Romero co-wrote and directed Night

of the Living Dead in 1968 which became a cult classic,

spawned a successful franchise and shaped horror

movies for decades. According to his manager,

the director died in his sleep while listening to the soundtrack

to the film The Quiet Man after a brief battle

with lung cancer. The after affects of the heatwave

in Europe last week continue Fires have broken out in different

corners of the continent. Firefighters tackled blazes

on the Croatian coast, Scrubland in the mountains of Genoa,

Italy, also set alight with ten And a fire in the north of Portugal,

which had been declared as contained, spread once more,

sending residents running. The Duchess of Cornwall turns 70

today, and Clarence House have marked the occasion by releasing

a new official portrait. The picture shows Camilla

with the Prince of Wales in the morning room

of their London home. It was taken by Mario Testino,

who first photographed the couple on their first wedding

anniversary in 2006. To the next news now. We will be

talking about the macro weight, I will get this ready while we talk

about the sport. We have some bridge facts coming on. Look at this golden

picture of Roger Federer in a golden frame. He managed this without

dropping a frame. Wasn't he a bit presumptuous with that T-shirt that

had his name and the number eight? I will give you that one, I did not

love that. But anyway. Yes, Roger Federer is the Wimbledon

champion for a record eighth time and he did it without really needing

to break sweat against Maric Cilic. Federer won in straight sets

in just one hour 41 minutes The Swiss is the first man

since Bjorn Borg to win the title without dropping a set

throughout the tournament. I was not sure if I was ever going

to be here again in another final after last year. I had some tough

ones, losing to Novak Djokovic in 2014 and 2015. But I always thought

I could maybe do it again. If you really

believe you can go far enough I kept dreaming and

believing, and here I am. And the last day of Wimbledon wasn't

without some British success. Jamie Murray and former singles

champion Martina Hingis beat the defending champions,

Britain's Heather Watson and Finland's Henri Kontinen

in straight sets. Really happy that I contacted Jamie

for playing together. Pretty much my dream came true

to give ourselves a good chance to win the title, and we did

the blue it was a great two weeks And Jamie Murray wasn't

the only British winner. Jordanne Whiley and her Japanese

partner Yui Kamiji have won their fourth successive women's

wheelchairs doubles title. Amazing achievements. You have to

feel sorry for Marin Cilic with that horrible blister on the sole of his

Ford which had to be attended to. Look at this! -- foot. Both he and

the blister were weeping. That is when you realise you are on your

own. You cannot turn to a tee. He was waiting his whole career for

this. The only thing you can say in consolation is you would hope he

would be there again. Talking about that, Roger has said he hasn't

thought about next year, but wouldn't it be wonderful. Do you

think he will be going for ten? Maybe he could be cryogenically

frozen and brought out every year for Wimbledon. They are at the top

of the game now and are doing things like only playing important matches,

play less, play better. Maybe we should all do that and only come

into work every once in a while. Great Britain's Jonnie Peacock has

won gold in the Men's 100m T44 to become the eighth British

gold-medallist of the 2017 Peacock's winning time was 10.75

seconds inside the London Stadium, it was actually slower

than his heat-winning Britain also picked up a bronze

through Maria Lyle in the Women's I knew I was in good form,

but at the end of the day, when it comes to the final,

I don't care about times. It is a great cherry

on top of the icing, but medals are what I can keep

forever and what I can look back on. And there's been more British

success this weekend. Lewis Hamilton won

the British Grand Prix The historic victory

moves him to within a point of Sebastien Vettel at the half way

stage of the Formula One season. That, after the Championship Leader

suffered a dramatic late puncture. I am so proud to see

all of these flags. Thank you for the support

and pushing us. England's cricketers need to produce

an heroic effort if they're to avoid defeat, when the second test

against South Africa The tourists are firmly in control

after setting England a target Englands reply got off to a nervous

start when Alastair Cook was given That decision was eventually

overturned but England face an uphull task to stop South Africa

levelling the series. We did not play very well at all,

but we have the opportunity to bat well for the next two days

and see what we can do. You cannot rule it out as well,

with the players we have. And the wickets are

still pretty good. We have played spin

pretty well in the past. And one man who wasn't expecting

to be there is Callum Shinkwin. The world number 405

earned his place, finishing second But it could have been

oh so much sweeter. The 24-year-old missed a putt to win

the tournament outright, had to play-off against

Rafa Cabera Bello, and missed again, handing the Spaniard

victory at Dundonald. Open soon. And the incredible game,

set, mug. Before that, can I use these to assist your understanding

of the Humber Bridge. The towers are vertical, but not parallel, because

of the curvature of the Earth. A vertical tower. They are vertical.

But because they are so far apart, there it is,... When they come back,

they are not parallel, because they are like this. Or are they like

that? No... Oh, I never did geography. It is like that, isn't

it? Different at the bottom. I am glad you used tennis racquets or I

would never get it. We are only allowed one go each at this. In!

Nearly! For the team! I need a racket. Absolutely useless. One,

two, three! I never knew that tennis racquets could be so useful. Maybe I

would have done geography is my teacher had them. We needed a proper

go. You are a great teacher. I nearly went into it but was told I

was too mature. Good morning. Getting a dog can be one of the most

important and rewarding decisions a family can make but an increasing

number of people are being caught The RSPCA says 2016 saw the largest

number of calls by the public reporting problems with breeders

and dealers and the charity is warning buyers against people

in the trade who put We spoke to some dog lovers

about what precautions you should Hi, this is our dog. A lot of

problems nowadays with puppy farms. We wanted to look at where he was.

We were lucky. I am from Manchester and these are my three dogs. Our

first pup was two years old when he died of PDA, meningitis. It meant he

was ill. We found out later from the puppy farm. Unfortunately, we got

the wrong choice at that time. Hi, I'm Jen. This is a four-year-old

puppy. We did not think about the whole process and breed at the time.

I'm Nick. And this is Vanessa. And this is our boy Albert. And this is

our little girl Victoria. Recommended breeders locally were

good for us. We went down to see Albert and meet him for the first

time. They also check us out to make sure we were good dog owners. Some

people just say that is great and go home with a puppy. Some people go

home without thinking about it first. Look at the research first.

Personally, he is like a grandchild to me and has made our family.

They were amazing scenes. Honestly, there were 2000 pugs outside. It was

Pugfest. Joining us now to discuss this

further is the RSPCA's Good morning. Good morning. People

might think that a puppy is a puppy, but you are concerned about where

they are coming from. Yes. What we have seen in the last 5- the years

is a huge increase in puppies being sold directly over the Internet. --

5-6. They are coming from puppy farms in Eastern Europe. They are

trucked in by the hundreds through the ports and sold on through free

internet sites in days. The problem is the welfare standards were the

dogs are bred are considerably less than what is expected. The dogs are

removed from their mothers too early and they don't get the right

immunisation levels they should. They have no vaccinations. There is

cross contamination between dogs and their source. They come in to the

country carrying life-threatening diseases that don't really manifest

themselves until a couple of days after the buyer gets them home. It

is not just about pugs, but all puppies. When we got our dog, we got

the advice to make sure you can see the mother and check them out. What

other advice can we give them? It is all about research. You have to do

as much research as possible. Don't give in to the temptation of

instantly buying. If you do your research on the Internet, look at

local breeders, go onto the RSPCA website where they have the Puppy

Contract, a guidebook on how to buy a dog. It tells you what you should

be doing. The problem is a lot of these dealers are criminal by

nature. And what they set out to do is to dupe that buyer into believing

they have a homebred puppy. So if they are floundering, that is a red

flag. They will have an adult dog present

at the place of sale and try to pass that off as the mother of the

puppies. If when you turn up that dog is showing no interest in the

puppies or it has been produced from another room or they will come up

with a story about the mother is out at the vet all gone for a walk,

these should be raising red flags not to purchase from those sellers.

Obviously as well when you get a puppy, and you take it to your vet,

make sure it has the right vaccinations. The first place you

should go to is your local vet, any documentation given with these dogs,

take that to the vet and get them to have a look at it. They will produce

fake vaccination cards and it's the key time when you get the puppy home

where it could fall ill. Those key questions, on the RSPCA website?

Yes, the puppy contract, you can download it and it will give you the

advice you need. The dog should know its name as well if there is the

mother there. All these things are put in place to defraud the buyer.

Thanks so much! We are out and about this morning by

the side of the Humber Bridge and we have been learning about the

curvature of the Earth and we can learn about the weather with Matt,

who has a gorgeous view. Good morning. Another fact, did you know

the first plans and proposals for a crossing across the Humber at this

point were in 1872. It was meant to be a tunnel. Several proposals have

been since and in 1959, the Humber Bridge, in all its splendour, got

its construction approval but it wasn't until this day in 1981 that

the Queen officially opened it. It is a stunning example of

architecture and engineering and today it has received grade one

listed status, which puts it in line with the likes of Buckingham Palace

and the House of Commons. It's not the only place to receive listed

status today, all other aid arguing to be in the city of falsity, part

of the City of Culture, including some gorgeous Edwardian toilets in

the city -- eight all in the city of Hull. This structure behind me, 410

metres in length, the most well-known of all. Under blue skies

at the moment. It will be under blue skies all day long, as will much of

the UK. Not just a sunny day but after a fresh start it will be an

increasingly warm one. A bit of cloud at the moment in western and

Northern Scotland producing some light showers, they will continue in

Orkney and Shetland into the afternoon and patchy cloud into

parts of being this Channel, south-west England and for some in

Wales. Most of that will be well broken with sunshine coming through,

always more cloud to the south-west -- of the English Channel. Strong

sunshine throughout. Temperatures in the low to mid 20s for many. Could

hit 25 or 27 in some parts of eastern England, including in the

north-east of England. Eastern parts of Northern Ireland could hit 25, as

could eastern parts of Scotland. Always a bit cooler to the far north

of Scotland, especially Orkney and Shetland, but you should finish the

day dry with a few breaks in the cloud as well. Tonight, we start

dry, a dry night for just about everyone again. A bit more cloud to

the south-west of the country at times but with clear spies

elsewhere, some mist and fog patches forming and a bit on the chillis

side to start Tuesday -- clear skies. A bit of variation from

morning and afternoon. -- chilly side. The breeze will be a bit

stronger in southern and eastern England. You have to head west for

the highest temperatures. Parts of the Midlands, south east in Wales,

could get to 28 or 29 and could hit 27 in the far north of Scotland.

Late in the day, some storms pushing into the south-west, lightning

mainly to begin with but as they drift north overnight into parts of

northern England and into Northern Ireland and western Scotland, some

torrential rain storms are possible as well and rain on and off on

Wednesday through the north-west of the UK. Sunshine for a time in

England and Wales, very humid on Wednesday and we could see

temperatures get very close to if not just above 30 Celsius in eastern

parts of England but that in itself good set of one or two isolated but

pretty severe storms. Details on where they will be, uncertain at the

moment, we will keep you updated. Fresher air clears them out of the

way on Thursday, rain to the north and west on Thursday later on but

most will have a dry day and after a sticky Wednesday, feeling more

comfortable as well. That's how your weather is looking from the glorious

sight of the Humber Bridge here. Back to you both. Spectacular this

morning. Thanks very much indeed! A swan in the background! I was

fascinated by that's one! Palma Airport in Majorca is one

of Europe's busiest airports for holidaymakers and lots

of Brits on holiday there have been caught

up in huge queues. Sean's has more on this,

there's been a few problems Heathrow, Manchester,

Edinburgh have all seen long queues for a variety of reasons,

from technical glitches to power Palma Airport in Majorca

was the latest to affect those on their holidays, with some queuing

for more than two hours at passport My girlfriend and I flew into Palma

airport on Wednesday evening. We were greeted with scenes of chaos.

At passport control there was a queue of about 2000 people. It was

hot, no air conditioning, no instructions being given by any of

the officials, no water handed out, children crying. That you took about

two hours to get through and when we finally got to passport control,

there were only three passport control officers checking passports

so all in all it was a terrible experience.

Tony Mann is director of Idle Travel near Bradford.

That sounded horrendous, that experience. More than 5 million

people are going through the airport last year from the UK, what is going

wrong? It seems since earlier on in the year, Palma was hit quite bad,

these new passport security checks in place have meant it takes longer

and at peak times they seem to have had a strain where people can be

there up to two hours before so people need to take into account if

you're an independent traveller to get there earlier. If you're on a

package deal, they will be monitoring the situation and they

will get you there in good time. You say get there in good time but if

you get their two hours before your flight but you are met with a huge

queue, and actually UQ for that length of time and you don't make

it, what rights do you have to get your money back? Your rights aren't

great because in the end it's not down to the airline, they say to get

there in good time so it isn't their fault, you could be stuck and it

could cost you more money to rebook unless you get a gesture of goodwill

from the airline to read book your flights. We are coming up to peak

time and a busy time so that will be difficult to do. Do you feel like

airports are ready and prepared and have everything in place with these

new regulations? Sometimes resources at certain airports are stretched at

times. When peak times, long, whichever airport it is, we always

advise customers to go at least two hours before. Even in the UK, could

be be worse than previous summers? We are lucky in the travel industry

at the moment, things have been going the way we are concerned.

Flights... This is peak school holidays, these airports will be

really busy. At times, whether it is abroad or in the UK, give yourself

plenty of time. In terms of the resources British airports have got,

do they have enough? It's not too bad at the British airports. On

couple from quite a few different ones and at times certainly don't go

for your minimum check-in time, that's not the thing to do because

you would struggle so definitely go early. It strains a bit at peak

times, like everything does, so my advice would be to go early and get

a good travel experience. Go early, good advice! If you've had any

experiences like this this summer then let us know. Rubbish if you go

through that. Let us know on Twitter, Facebook and we will come

back to you. I turn up very early at airports so

thank you very much! I will go even earlier! Earlier we were talking

about the right to die and so many people have got in contact, let me

read a few. The right to die and manage one's own death is a basic

human rights, right now people suffer with no option and our pets

have much better end to life options. And as Lee said it is

humane and right people have control when they die. -- Leslie says. Mike

said it is a basic human necessity. Thanks for getting in touch. You can

e-mail us or talk to us on Twitter as well.

Keep watching because in the course of the next hour you may be one of

those people, bleary eyed this morning, you may have watched season

seven of Game of Thrones at 2am. We will be joined by one of the stars,

she plays one of the characters in Game of Thrones. Gemma Weir and will

be with us in the next hour. in our BBC newsrooms across the UK

this morning. Plenty more on our website

at the usual address. Now, though, it's back

to Louise and Dan. Hello, this is Breakfast,

with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin. Details of 16,000 jobs are announced

as the first major contracts to build the HS2 rail

line are revealed. The high speed line

between Birmingham and London will cost around 7 billion pounds -

the final routes for extensions to Leeds and Manchester

will also be unveiled. Good morning - we've just got

the names of the companies who'll be building the first phase

of the huge project. The likes of Carillion and Alfred

Beatty or two of the firms that are rumoured to be involved.

Also this morning: a record is broken at Wimbledon...

The King of Centre Court does it again.

A record EIGHTH Wimbledon title for Roger Federer,

as he beats Marin Cilic in straight sets to become the first man

1000 years after the lynx became extinct in the UK -

a plan is considered to reintroduce them in Northern England.

The next Doctor Who is a girl! Plenty of reaction like that as

Jodie Whittaker is revealed as the next Doctor. We have more reaction.

Game of Thrones is back - we'll be discussing series seven

with Gemma Whelan who plays Yara Greyjoy.

It doesn't look like winter is coming in Hull today. Matt is with

us for the weather. Sunny skies overhead. It took 100 years of

campaigning, eight years of construction, the Humber Bridge,

this bridge has received grade one listed status, we will be talking

about the bridge and the forecast which contains lots of sunshine but

will it last? The final route for

the controversial HS2 rail line north of Birmingham will be

announced today - There's also more detail on who has

been awarded contracts worth nearly seven billion pounds

to work on the first stretch of the line -

including troubled construction giant Carillion - and information

on around 16,000 jobs. Sean is here. What do you have us?

This is just the first phase, ?7 billion in total, when they have

finally old at all, if that ever happens, we will get there in

decades, ?57 billion, current costs. There have been questions over that

figure, questions over the weekend, some researchers putting together

figures saying it will be double that, but the government says it's

not true, everything is on-time and on budget. That little bit of money

this morning, little bit, ?7 billion, will go to companies

including Balfour Beatty, the one that John died as Carillion,

Brilliant making headlines last week, the share price fall in by 7%,

financial problems, debt issues, interestingly along side the

announcement, Carillion has said they are appointing a new strategic

advisor to try and sort out the company, Albert the cost reductions.

That is the one that might jump out but many workers who have worked on

railway upgrades and other schemes, several companies listed. We will

know about the route a little bit later because lots of people want to

know where it is going. Yes, particularly the detail around

Sheffield, we will get that later, whether it goes from Birmingham to

Leeds, they have made a final decision but they should do today,

also we might hear something about the line to crew and Manchester,

could lead that could be implemented earlier than previously thought,

2026 phase one, 2027 for the next bit to crew is what we could hear

later but residents and environmentalists will be keen to

watch that stop Carillion have got to build a tunnel through the

children's, that has been particularly controversial.

Sheffield is interesting, it was going to go to Meadowhall, the

shopping centre, now told that it will go to an existing station, talk

that it will go through homes, people moved into a new estate and

just a couple of weeks later found out about the rail line. It's not

the last time we will speak about this. No, I guarantee you. Thank

you. The Brexit Secretary David Davis has

called for both sides to "get down to business" this morning

as the next round of negotiating He's meeting the European

Commission's chief negotiator Our Brussels reporter Adam Fleming

is outside the Commission. Adam, are they likely to make

any progress this time? It's been pretty slow going, as we

expected it would be? I think we will get a press Conference at the

end of the week on Thursday at the end of the first round of

substantive talks between David Davis and Michel Barnier. In terms

of whether there will be progress, that's a good question, EU officials

have told me this will be about clarification. Both sides exchanging

papers on a range of issues, it will be about getting round a table and

each other asking questions about what they really mean, getting

details about the other's positions rather than making great leaves

forward up this point. David Davis says his personal priority is the

issue of citizens rights, what rights were EU citizens living in

the UK after Brexit have and what about Brits living in the rest of

the continent? Or Michel Barnier it's about getting the UK to agree a

dose money to the EU as the result of leaving. Adam, thank you. A press

Conference expected later, that will be a big topic of escutcheon, and

BBC News Channel will be covering that. Also in the news today, a

terminally ill man will begin a High Court challenge to the ban on

assisted dying. Noel Conway has motor neurone disease and once a

doctor to be allowed to prescribe a lethal dose when his health

deteriorates further. Under the current law and England and Wales

any doctored who helped him would face up to 14 years in prison but

opponents say a change in the law would put vulnerable people at risk.

Fergus Walsh has more. Noel Conway increasingly relies

on a ventilator to help him breathe. His chest muscles are

gradually getting weaker. Once fit and active,

Motor Neuron Disease has already As the condition progresses,

he fears becoming entombed In fact, I could be

virtually catatonic. I'll be conceivably

in a Locked-In Syndrome. That prospect is just

not one I can accept. Mr Conway came to a preliminary

High Court hearing in March, but now feels too weak to make

the journey from Shropshire. His lawyers will say he wants

the right to a peaceful and dignified death

while he still has the capacity It's three years since

the Supreme Court dismissed the last major challenge to the Suicide Act,

which involved Tony Nicklison, Since then, MPs overwhelmingly

rejected proposals to Supporters of the current law say it

protects the weak and vulnerable, but Mr Conway says the law

is broken, and condemns him Thank you for your comments on all

offer this morning. A rise in acid attacks suggests or 400 attacks

involving corrosive substances and England and Wales in the six months

to April, the debate comes as the government begins a review into the

issue which could see sentences for the offence increased. Yesterday the

Home Secretary Amber Rudd said she wanted perpetrators to feel the full

force of the law. Prince George and Princess Charlotte will travel with

their parents to later at the start of a four-day tour of Eastern

Europe. The Duke and it is of Cambridge will start the trip in

Warsaw before to Berlin later. Foreign Office hopes the tour will

remind EU countries about the strength of their ties to the UK. It

was the moment that Doctor Who fans have been waiting for since Peter

Capaldi announced he would relinquish the key to the TARDIS. Is

there a key to the TARDIS? There is now. She has it. Jodie Whittaker has

been announced as the 13th doctor, the identity of the latest

incarnation of the Doctor Who Time Lord was revealed in a trailer at

the end of the Wimbledon men's's singles final. Jodie Whittaker is

the first woman to play the character and the announcement

created quite a lot of excitement. The next Doctor is a girl! That is

the daughter of American author Jenny Trout and that has been

re-tweeted and Sherrod. Pure excitement. I have a paper... She is

on the front page of a lot of papers. You going to break

something? There she is, clearly delighted. Lots of people getting in

touch, thank you. John tweeted to say, as a father and grandfather to

girls, he was pleased. Thank you, my assistant, my companion. Great

heroes to aspire to, not just companions. Michael said he thought

the show had been ruined for the sake of political correct this.

Ouch. In the interest of balance there was quite a bit of that

reaction. Colin Baxter, the sixth Doctor, tweeted... Not bad for an

assistant? Colin Baker, the sixth Doctor, remember him? Change, my

dears. Not a moment too soon. She is the doctor whether you like it or

not. We will discuss that later on. They write for the Daily Mirror and

they are a self-confessed Doctor Who fan. It's 11 minutes past eight.

Let's return to one of the main stories.
